Default stock seat mod finished

I reshaped my seat pan and cut out that recessed part in the back where the silver bar is mounted that also mounts to the rear fender. It always felt like I was riding on that hump. The stock cushion is actually very thin right above that hump. I cut a piece of aluminum to cover the area and riveted it. I'll remount the bar to the new aluminum in the back of the seat pan tomorrow. I also replaced a good bit of the stock foam with higher density foam. I like a firmer cushion. It feels much better now.
